Britain's medical regulator will be able to grant temporary authorisation for any coronavirus vaccine that meets safety and quality standards but before it has received a full licence, under new plans set out on Friday. The government said that under its proposals MHRA would be able to grant this status to a vaccine while it underwent the full licensing process, with reinforced conditions to ensure safety.
